Chungmijung Kelp Shampoo, 520ml

Cleansers South Korea Approx. $29

Chungmijung is the seaweed house, and the kelp shampoo is the one Koreans buy in the big bottle: number twelve on Olive Young US's own chart and the brand's bestseller at home. It washes an oily scalp clean without the stripping the Ryo further up the page is built for, and leaves fine hair with some body. Twenty eight fifty for five hundred and twenty millilitres, shipped domestically, which is the first product on this page you can have by Thursday.
